However, not all tech companies trade at expensive valuations. Some tech stocks like <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/LUMN\">Lumen Technologies</a> </b>(NYSE:LUMN), <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/QCOM\">Qualcomm</a> </b>(NASDAQ:QCOM), and <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VZA\">Verizon</a> <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/JCS\">Communications</a> </b>(NYSE:VZ) not only trade at low multiples, but also utilize cutting-edge technology to drive sales and, hopefully, investor gains.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eeec4df27528cce8c68597066e6a13ef\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/GTY\">Getty</a> Images.</p>\n<h3>1. Lumen</h3>\n<p>Admittedly, Lumen became cheap for a reason over the past several years. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CUBI\">Customers</a> cutting landline phones and cable TV services sent shares plummeting, leading to single-digit stock prices and dividend cuts. However, the company has now redirected its focus, offering edge computing, cloud, infrastructure, network, and security services. It also supports wireless providers such as <b>T-Mobile</b>, serving as the backbone of 5G networks.</p>\n<p>Its stock has risen by more than 32% over the last year, and it's valued relatively fairly at just eight times earnings, well below the technology sector's average P/E ratio, which stands at 39, according to Fidelity.</p>\n<p>Struggles with revenue may explain why Lumen still trades at a low multiple. Revenue fell 4% in the first quarter, compared to 12 months ago, to just over $5 billion. In fiscal 2020, it dropped 3% from year-ago levels to $20.7 billion.</p>\n<p>Fortunately, free cash flow of $2.8 billion in 2020 and $809 million in Q1 have allowed it to cover quarterly dividend expenses of $274 million. This dividend, which pays $1 per share annually, yields about 7.7%, well above the average yield for the <b>S&amp;P 500 </b>of 1.3%.</p>\n<p>The company has also used its free cash flow to reduce and refinance its massive debt. Indeed, $31.4 billion is a heavy debt burden for a company with $11.3 billion in stockholders' equity (the value of the company after subtracting liabilities from assets). Nonetheless, long-term debt has fallen by $4 billion since Q1 2019.</p>\n<p>Although revenue gains remain elusive for now, the balance sheet continues to improve, and investors earn a generous cash return. If this trend continues, Lumen may not have a reason to stay this cheap for much longer.</p>\n<h3>2. Qualcomm</h3>\n<p>Qualcomm prospers by maintaining wireless patents that give the company an edge in smartphone chipsets. Consequently, Qualcomm receives a cut on every smartphone chipset in the world.</p>\n<p>Admittedly, companies such as Taiwan-based MediaTek have become a competitive threat. However, thanks to its 5G-capable Snapdragon 888 and upcoming Snapdragon 888 Plus processors, it holds a technical lead in a market expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 69% through 2028, according to Grand View Research.</p>\n<p>This 5G upgrade cycle helped increase revenue for the first six months of fiscal 2021 to $16.2 billion, a 57% increase from the first six months of 2020. Also, net income surged by 203% during that period to $4.2 billion. Smaller increases in the cost of revenue and operating costs along with positive investment-related income helped to boost earnings.</p>\n<p>Qualcomm projects between $7.1 billion and $7.9 billion in revenue for Q3. This will lead to an increase of between 49% and 62%, if the forecast holds. That also amounts to a considerable return when considering the stock sells for approximately 20 times earnings.</p>\n<p>Additionally, the $5.1 billion in free cash flow over the first six months easily covered $1.5 billion in dividend costs. That $2.72 per share annual payout produces a cash return of 1.9%. Considering the stock price rose by nearly 60% over the last 12 months, the 5G upgrade cycle and the low multiple make the Qualcomm value proposition difficult to match.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://media.ycharts.com/charts/294b93f672edf72d1a786cf983d18a94.png\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"387\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>LUMN data by YCharts</p>\n<h3>3. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VZ\">Verizon</a></h3>\n<p>Value investors may also take an interest in a telecom provider like Verizon, which is locked in a battle with T-Mobile and <b>AT&amp;T </b>to provide 5G services. In January, for the 26th consecutive time, Verizon earned the title of the most-awarded brand from J.D. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PW\">Power</a> for network quality. To keep up with consumers' quality expectations, Verizon made a $45 billion investment in C-Band spectrum in the first quarter of this year. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SPB\">Spectrum</a> amounts to real estate for wireless frequencies, and this buys Verizon usage rights. Thus, it can utilize such \"property\" to improve the quality of its 5G service.</p>\n<p>Furthermore, 5G appears poised to make Verizon a network-as-a-service (NaaS) provider, something not possible with 4G technology. This provides network infrastructure services as a subscription-based model to enable and connect applications. This will power artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR), and Internet of Things (IoT) applications, among other things. In its Q1 2021 earnings call, Verizon cited <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/HMC\">Honda</a></b>'s self-driving cars and immersive learning at Arizona <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/STT\">State</a> University as examples of activities this service supports.</p>\n<p>Verizon stock's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 12 reflects the company's recent struggles. In 2020, revenue fell 3% compared with 2019 levels. This occurred mostly because service revenues fell only slightly while wireless equipment revenues plunged 15% during that period amid a drop in activity during the pandemic.&nbsp;This seems to have changed in the first quarter of 2021, as wireless equipment revenue surged 20% compared with year-ago levels. Still, with the 4% year-over-year increase in overall revenue during that time, investors may have little incentive to bid the earnings multiple higher.</p>\n<p>Nonetheless, Verizon pays investors well to wait for a recovery. Its $2.51 per share annual dividend yields a cash return of 4.5%, making it <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of Warren Buffett's highest-yielding dividend stocks. In 2020, $23.6 billion in free cash flow made the $10.2 billion in dividend expenses manageable, even with $18.2 billion in capital expenditures. The company has raised its dividend every year since 2007, increasing the likelihood that a 2021 dividend hike will come.</p>\n<p>Such a payout along with a burgeoning NaaS business may give patient investors good reason to take a chance on Verizon.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Looking for Tech Stocks?

However, not all tech companies trade at expensive valuations. Some tech stocks like Lumen Technologies (NYSE:LUMN), Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM), and Verizon Communications (NYSE:VZ) not only trade at low multiples, but also utilize cutting-edge technology to drive sales and, hopefully, investor gains.\n\nImage source: Getty Images.\n1. Lumen\nAdmittedly, Lumen became cheap for a reason over the past several years. Customers cutting landline phones and cable TV services sent shares plummeting, leading to single-digit stock prices and dividend cuts. However, the company has now redirected its focus, offering edge computing, cloud, infrastructure, network, and security services. It also supports wireless providers such as T-Mobile, serving as the backbone of 5G networks.\nIts stock has risen by more than 32% over the last year, and it's valued relatively fairly at just eight times earnings, well below the technology sector's average P/E ratio, which stands at 39, according to Fidelity.\nStruggles with revenue may explain why Lumen still trades at a low multiple. Revenue fell 4% in the first quarter, compared to 12 months ago, to just over $5 billion. In fiscal 2020, it dropped 3% from year-ago levels to $20.7 billion.\nFortunately, free cash flow of $2.8 billion in 2020 and $809 million in Q1 have allowed it to cover quarterly dividend expenses of $274 million. This dividend, which pays $1 per share annually, yields about 7.7%, well above the average yield for the S&P 500 of 1.3%.\nThe company has also used its free cash flow to reduce and refinance its massive debt. Indeed, $31.4 billion is a heavy debt burden for a company with $11.3 billion in stockholders' equity (the value of the company after subtracting liabilities from assets). Nonetheless, long-term debt has fallen by $4 billion since Q1 2019.\nAlthough revenue gains remain elusive for now, the balance sheet continues to improve, and investors earn a generous cash return. If this trend continues, Lumen may not have a reason to stay this cheap for much longer.\n2.

Consequently, Qualcomm receives a cut on every smartphone chipset in the world.\nAdmittedly, companies such as Taiwan-based MediaTek have become a competitive threat. However, thanks to its 5G-capable Snapdragon 888 and upcoming Snapdragon 888 Plus processors, it holds a technical lead in a market expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 69% through 2028, according to Grand View Research.\nThis 5G upgrade cycle helped increase revenue for the first six months of fiscal 2021 to $16.2 billion, a 57% increase from the first six months of 2020.

The company remains well ahead of streaming rivals such as Disney+ or HBO Max, but it added fewer subscribers than expected in its most recently reported quarter.</p>\n<p>Pushing into games would be <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> of Netflix’s boldest moves yet. In Verdu, the company has an executive who worked on popular mobile games at Electronic Arts, including titles in the Sims, Plants vs. Zombies and Star Wars franchises. He also served as chief creative officer for <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ZNGA\">Zynga</a> Inc. between 2009 and 2012.</p>\n<p>Netflix will be building out its gaming team in the coming months, according to the person familiar with the matter. The company has already started advertising for game-development related positions on its website.</p>\n<p>Video games give Netflix another way to lure new customers and also offer something none of its direct competitors currently provides. Walt Disney Co., AT&amp;T Inc.’s WarnerMedia and Amazon.com Inc. all have access to live sports, but they don’t have gaming within their main video services.</p>\n<p>Ultimately, the move may make it easier for Netflix to justify price increases in coming years. Games also serve the purpose of helping market existing shows.</p>\n<p>Many of the largest tech companies do sell gaming options in addition to their video services. Apple Inc. has a platform called Arcade for games -- as well as a TV+ service for original video projects. But it charges extra for the gaming.</p>\n<p>What Bloomberg Intelligence says:“This is a natural extension of its Netflix’s content strategy, allowing it to mine intellectual property from popular shows like ‘Stranger Things.’ Though it may not generate much additional revenue, it will help deepen engagement and increase the service’s appeal and pricing power. Don’t expect this to be a turning point, but it shows that the company will explore new formats to increase time spent on the platform.”-- Geetha Ranganathan, BI media analyst</p>\n<p>The news jolted shares of GameStop Corp., the video-game retailer that’s been attempting a comeback. It fell as much as 10% in extended trading Wednesday.</p>\n<p>Evidence of Netflix’s plans to add games has already begun to appear in files hidden deep within the company’s app, according to research conducted by iOS developer Steve Moser that was shared with Bloomberg.</p>\n<p>Netflix has previously licensed the rights to games based on its shows -- including “Stranger Things” -- but this new initiative is much larger in scope. The Los Gatos, California-based company has yet to settle on a game-development strategy, said the person. In typical Netflix fashion, the company may start with just a few games and build from there.</p>\n<p>Interactive Shows</p>\n<p>Netflix also has made earlier forays into interactive programming, such as choose-your-own-adventure-style shows. It created versions of programs like “Carmen Sandiego” and “Black Mirror” in that format, which stops short of being a true video game.</p>\n<p>Netflix co-Chief Executive Officers Reed Hastings and Ted Sarandos have shared their interest in pushing into gaming in recent calls with analysts. They’ve also identified the battle-royale shooter game Fortnite as a competitor for its customers’ time.</p>\n<p>Still, Hollywood studios have a checkered history in the video-game business. Some companies have had a lot of success licensing their movies or TV shows for games, and Warner Bros. has created a handful of hit titles in-house over the years.</p>\n<p>But Disney, the world’s largest entertainment company, shut down most of its in-house gaming operations after years of unsuccessful efforts. It has since focused on licensing Marvel and Stars Wars properties for games.</p>","source":"yahoofinance","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Netflix Plans to Offer Video Games in Push Beyond Films, TV</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nNetflix Plans to Offer Video Games in Push Beyond Films, TV\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-15 23:01 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/netflix-plans-offer-video-games-232147216.html><strong>Bloomberg</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>(Bloomberg) -- Netflix Inc., marking its first big move beyond TV shows and films, is planning an expansion into video games and has hired a former Electronic Arts Inc. and Facebook Inc. executive to ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/netflix-plans-offer-video-games-232147216.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GME":"游戏驿站","EA":"艺电","T":"美国电话电报","AAPL":"苹果","DIS":"迪士尼","AMZN":"亚马逊","QNETCN":"纳斯达克中美互联网老虎指数","ZNGA":"Zynga","NFLX":"奈飞"},"source_url":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/netflix-plans-offer-video-games-232147216.html","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/5f26f4a48f9cb3e29be4d71d3ba8c038","article_id":"2151154518","content_text":"(Bloomberg) -- Netflix Inc., marking its first big move beyond TV shows and films, is planning an expansion into video games and has hired a former Electronic Arts Inc. and Facebook Inc. executive to lead the effort.\nMike Verdu will join Netflix as vice president of game development, reporting to Chief Operating Officer Greg Peters, the company said on Wednesday.

In Verdu, the company has an executive who worked on popular mobile games at Electronic Arts, including titles in the Sims, Plants vs. Zombies and Star Wars franchises. He also served as chief creative officer for Zynga Inc. between 2009 and 2012.\nNetflix will be building out its gaming team in the coming months, according to the person familiar with the matter. The company has already started advertising for game-development related positions on its website.\nVideo games give Netflix another way to lure new customers and also offer something none of its direct competitors currently provides. Walt Disney Co., AT&T Inc.’s WarnerMedia and Amazon.com Inc. all have access to live sports, but they don’t have gaming within their main video services.\nUltimately, the move may make it easier for Netflix to justify price increases in coming years. Games also serve the purpose of helping market existing shows.\nMany of the largest tech companies do sell gaming options in addition to their video services. Apple Inc. has a platform called Arcade for games -- as well as a TV+ service for original video projects. But it charges extra for the gaming.\nWhat Bloomberg Intelligence says:“This is a natural extension of its Netflix’s content strategy, allowing it to mine intellectual property from popular shows like ‘Stranger Things.’ Though it may not generate much additional revenue, it will help deepen engagement and increase the service’s appeal and pricing power. Don’t expect this to be a turning point, but it shows that the company will explore new formats to increase time spent on the platform.”-- Geetha Ranganathan, BI media analyst\nThe news jolted shares of GameStop Corp., the video-game retailer that’s been attempting a comeback. It fell as much as 10% in extended trading Wednesday.\nEvidence of Netflix’s plans to add games has already begun to appear in files hidden deep within the company’s app, according to research conducted by iOS developer Steve Moser that was shared with Bloomberg.\nNetflix has previously licensed the rights to games based on its shows -- including “Stranger Things” -- but this new initiative is much larger in scope. The Los Gatos, California-based company has yet to settle on a game-development strategy, said the person. In typical Netflix fashion, the company may start with just a few games and build from there.\nInteractive Shows\nNetflix also has made earlier forays into interactive programming, such as choose-your-own-adventure-style shows. It created versions of programs like “Carmen Sandiego” and “Black Mirror” in that format, which stops short of being a true video game.\nNetflix co-Chief Executive Officers Reed Hastings and Ted Sarandos have shared their interest in pushing into gaming in recent calls with analysts. They’ve also identified the battle-royale shooter game Fortnite as a competitor for its customers’ time.\nStill, Hollywood studios have a checkered history in the video-game business. Some companies have had a lot of success licensing their movies or TV shows for games, and Warner Bros. has created a handful of hit titles in-house over the years.\nBut Disney, the world’s largest entertainment company, shut down most of its in-house gaming operations after years of unsuccessful efforts. It has since focused on licensing Marvel and Stars Wars properties for games.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":431,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"posts","isTTM":true}
